I posted on another thread, what a success I had last year with my beer, and a problem free barrel. This year, not so good. I put my beer in the barrel last week, and left it. I went to look at it this week, and the rug on the floor was wet. It looks as though the tap is dripping, even though it is turned off. I've put a plastic cup hanging from string, to act as a sort of drip tray, but I think if I left it a week, the cup would be full. Can you buy stoppers for the taps, or any other suggestions. At this rate I'll have no beer left by Christmas.
